川西亚高山次生林恢复过程中乔木层优势种变化及其影响因子

川西亚高山森林在20世纪下半叶遭受长时期连续砍伐,形成了采伐迹地上天然次生林恢复演替序列。该研究采用空间代替时间方法,以立地条件相似的暗针叶林作为对照,分析川西亚高山暗针叶林采伐迹地上次生林自然恢复过程中乔木层优势种组成及其影响因子。结果表明:(1)研究区亚高山天然次生林恢复演替过程中,不同演替阶段土壤各养分差异显著,其中土壤总氮、土壤总磷、土壤有效磷、土壤有效氮均在针阔混交林阶段最高,土壤pH值的变化在5.42～7.39范围波动,土壤有机碳随恢复的进行而增加,土壤C/N主要集中在15左右,只有针叶林达到18.62。(2)研究区次生林以16个乔木树种为主,针叶树种主要有粗枝云杉、岷江冷杉,阔叶树种主要有红桦、青榨槭等,且不同恢复阶段的群落乔木层优势种差异显著(R_(ANOSINM)=0.439,P0.001)。(3)多元回归树分析发现,次生林乔木层优势种组成主要受林龄、土壤有机碳和总氮的影响,其中在次生林恢复演替后期(80a后),乔木层组成可能主要由于种间竞争导致,在次生林恢复演替前、中期(80a前),环境选择可能是影响乔木层组成差异的主导因素。(4)反向选择筛选结果显示,土壤总氮、海拔高度、土壤有效磷和土壤有机碳是影响乔木层优势种差异的主要因子。     

铜陵市狮子山铜尾矿废弃地生态恢复过程中植被演替规律

通过对铜陵市狮子山铜尾矿废弃地植被的实地调查,探讨了该废弃地的植被状况及其植被恢复过程中的植物群落形成与演替的一般规律与特征.结果表明:目前废弃地入侵、定居植物共49种,隶属于15科38属,主要包括菊科(12种)、禾本科(11种)、豆科(8种)等.极端贫瘠和过高的重金属含量(特别是Cu、Cd,平均超出对照土样的20～30倍)是限制植物在废弃地定居的主要因素.全部植物中,一、二年生草本植物26种,多年生草本植物20种.风播种子和果实是废弃地植物繁殖体的主要来源.尾矿废弃地植物群落形成具有先锋植物的入侵、定居、群聚和竞争等过程,共形成了14种相对稳定的小群落,包括单优势种群落、次优势种群落和共优势种群落三种类型.伴随着尾矿废弃地植物群落的形成与演替,群落中物种丰富度增大,多样性指数呈增加趋势,而群落内植物种综合优势比间的差值趋于减小.     

干旱荒漠区人工植物群落演替模式及其生态学机制研究

以我国干旱荒漠区包兰铁路沙坡头地段人工植被防护林体系作为研究对象,研究了区域植被建立与发展过程中,优势植物种的种群动态和人工植物群落的演替模式,探讨了植物群落演替的内在动因和生态学机制．结果表明,该区人工植被经过40余年的演变,其植物种组成发生了很大的变化,已由原来的灌木、半灌木人工植物群落演变为一年生草本植物占优势的人工-天然荒漠植物群落．在此演替过程中,人工栽植的灌木种如柠条、花棒等的重要值不断减少,逐渐从人工植物群落中退出;而天然繁衍的一年生草本植物如小画眉草、雾冰藜、刺蓬、虎尾草等相继侵入,并逐渐成为该区的优势植物种;油蒿由于具有天然下种自行更新能力,在群落中始终占有重要地位．这种物种替代模式与该地区降水资源严重匮乏以及沙地表面结皮的增厚,致使沙子下层含水量降低。深根系的灌木及多年生草本的繁衍受到限制密不可分．     

营养盐加富和鱼类添加对浮游植物群落演替和多样性的影响

浮游植物是水体生态系统敞水区最重要的初级生产者,其组成与多样性反映了群落的结构类型和存在状态。通过围隔实验,模拟水库春季发生的营养盐加富和鱼类放养的干扰,分析在这两种干扰下的浮游植物群落演替过程中优势种和稀有种的变化,并通过以丰度与生物量为变量的香农和辛普森多样性指数的计算,分析浮游植物群落演替过程中的多样性变化特征。结果表明,营养盐加富干扰下的浮游植物群落的优势种变化和演替更为明显,营养盐加富与鱼类添加对浮游植物群落多样性变化的影响符合中度干扰理论。在优势种优势度变化较大的浮游植物群落演替过程中,多样性指数与浮游植物生物量有较高的负相关性。在浮游植物群落演替过程中,香农和辛普森多样性指数的变化趋势基本一致,采用丰度与生物量为变量的两种多样性指数的计算结果对实验系统中浮游植物群落多样性的分析结果没有明显的影响。     

Temporal and spatial patterns of crustacean zooplankton dynamics in a transitional lagoon ecosystem

Patterns and mechanisms of plankton crustacean seasonal succession in the eutrophic freshwater Curonian lagoon (south-eastern Baltic Sea) were analysed on the basis of four-year (1995, 1996, 1998 and 1999) field sampling results. The seasonal crustacean zooplankton succession in the lagoon appears to be the consistent six-stage sequence of four distinct species complexes. Each stage is characterised by its individual species composition and quantitative characteristics. The uniform and periodic pattern of the limnetic zooplankton crustacean successional stages in the lagoon indicates that the seasonal succession of the limnetic zooplankton is not disturbed by unpredictable environmental fluctuations, such as brackish water inflows. Seasonal zooplankton succession is also comparatively uniform at a spatial scale. Not more than two adjacent successional stages were found across the northern part of the lagoon during each of 11 seasonal surveys. Comparison between monthly water residence time and dominant plankton crustacean species life cycle duration points to a more transitory plankton community in spring while in the summer it is not much influenced by lagoon hydrodynamics. Consequently, the Curonian lagoon crustacean community quite closely follows the Plankton Ecology Group (PEG)-described freshwater lake seasonal succession in summer and turns into a lentic-like system in spring and autumn.     

Degradation succession of heterotrophic flagellate communities in microcosms

Degradation succession of heterotrophic flagellate communities was studied in samples of detritus and water from a small swamped lake in the environs of the settlement Borok, Yaroslavl province. Three stages of succession with different species composition of the heterotrophic flagellate community were clearly recognized. Cumulative properties of the community change with time. Maximum species richness, diversity, and abundance were observed on the fourth day of succession; their values gradually decreased later. The trophic and taxonomic community structure was most diverse at the earlier stages of succession. Primordial food (bacteria) concentration affects only the size of peak community properties, but has no influence on the pattern of succession changes. The influence of predators considerably reduced heterotrophic flagellate abundance and can shift the time of the stage with maximum species diversity in the course of succession.     

天童常绿阔叶林演替系列植物群落的N∶P化学计量特征

 土壤氮磷养分对植物生长的限制性可通过植被的N∶P化学计量特征来反映。该研究以常绿阔叶林演替系列为对象,将N∶P作为诊断指标,揭示 常绿阔叶林次生演替过程中植物群落的N∶P化学计量特征和养分限制作用。结果显示：1)物种水平的N∶P大小不一,但演替系列总体的变化特 征表现出了较高的一致性。2）在群落水平上,次生演替初期的灌草丛N∶P极小(7.38),远远低于14,当演替进入灌丛阶段,N∶P 显著增高到 19.96,在进入演替中期的针叶林(14.29)和针阔混交林(14.21)时,N∶P显著下降到 14～16之间,演替中后期的木荷(Schima superba)群落 (18.77)和栲树(Castanopsis fargesii)群落(20.13)的N∶P发生了显著的升高过程 。根据以往对N∶P临界值的确定,可以认为,常绿阔叶林次 生演替初期的植物群落生产力主要受到氮素的限制作用;演替中期的针叶林和针阔混交林主要受氮磷的共同限制,但以氮素的限制作用更为强 烈;演替中后期植物群落主要受到土壤磷素的限制作用。     

Receding Water Line and Interspecific Competition Determines Plant Community Composition and Diversity in Wetlands in Beijing

Climate and human-induced wetland degradation has accelerated in recent years, not only resulting in reduced ecosystem services but also greatly affecting the composition and diversity of wetland plant communities. To date, the knowledge of the differences in community parameters and their successional trends in degraded wetlands remains scarce. Here based on remote sensing images, geographic information system technology, and statistical methods, we produced a successional gradient map of the Yeyahu Wetland Nature Reserve in Beijing, which has experienced a steady decline in water level in recent decades. In addition, we analyzed community composition and diversity along with each identified gradient. The results showed that community diversity decreases while dominance increases with the progress of succession, with the highest diversity occurring during the early stage of succession. Moreover, the community demonstrates greater similarity among subareas during later successional stages, and the similarity coefficients calculated from the important value (IV) of each species are more accurate. Correlation analysis showed that the impact of soil factors on diversity was not significant at a subarea scale, although these nutrients showed an increasing trend with the community succession. Furthermore, the IVs of the dominant species had a particularly significant impact on diversity, showing a significantly negative correlation with diversity indices and a significantly positive correlation with dominance indices. Further analysis showed that the retreat of water level resulted from sustained drought and local human activities was a major extrinsic driving force resulting in observed differences in the community successional stages, which resulted in differences in community composition and diversity. On the other hand, interspecific competition was the main intrinsic mechanism, which significantly influenced the IVs of the dominant species and community diversity. The results of this study could aid in improving the understanding of community composition, diversity, and its successional trends in degraded wetlands.     

鼎湖山针阔混交林演替过程中群落组成和结构短期动态研究

分析了鼎湖山针阔混交林永久样地在4a演变过程中群落的物种组成结构、空间结构、物种多样性以及生物量的动态变化。结果表明：群落乔、灌、草3层的物种个体数量有很大变化,但其物种组成结构变幅很小;针叶树种马尾松(Pinus massoniana)的优势地位逐步丧失,而阔叶树种荷木(Schima superba)和锥栗(Castanopsis chinensis)等优势地位日益巩固,同时中生性树种的罗伞(Ardisia quinquegona)和九节(Psychotria rubra)等地位也在加强,整个群落向常绿阔叶林演变：群落乔木层的生物量增加而灌木层的生物量逐步减少,但群落总生物量仍在增加：群落各层次物种多样性的变化及其相互关系较为复杂,但各层次的物种多样性指数只表现微小的起伏,说明针阔混交林群落的演替是一种缓慢的、较为稳定的过程。同时,在群落的演替过程中,偶见种及珍稀植物的保护值得关注。     

Vegetation development on deposit soils starting at different seasons

Permanent plots were created in different seasons (autumn and spring) and filled with two substrates: nutrient-rich topsoil and nutrient-poor ruderal soil (n = 5 for each treatment). My objectives were to assess the influence of starting season on initial species composition, whether differences at the start cause divergent or convergent pathways of succession and which mechanisms are operating during vegetation development. Mean species richness (number of species per plot) and mean total cover of herb layer differed significantly between substrates and changed significantly during 10 year succession, but there were no significant differences with respect to starting season. However, seasonal as well as substrate effects were evident for particular dominant species and for the pattern of successional sequences. When succession on topsoil plots started in spring, first summer annuals dominated, then monocarpic and polycarpic perennial herbs, then herbaceous perennials together with woody perennials, and at the end of the decade woody perennials. When succession started in autumn, polycarpic perennial herbs dominated from the beginning, and then were replaced by woody perennials in the second half of the decade. On ruderal soil, there was a less rapid but continuous increase of polycarpic perennial herbs and woody species, both on spring and on autumn plots, whereas short-lived plants were more abundant in the first years and then decreased. Species turnover was very high from the first to the second year for all treatments (except topsoil plots starting in autumn), but slowed down during succession. Priority effects due to starting season caused high dissimilarity at the start on the nutrient-rich substrate, but convergent succession towards the end of the first decade. The main mechanisms during early succession on the nutrient-rich topsoil were tolerance based on different life-history traits and inhibition due to reduced light availability. There was no evidence for obligate facilitation. However, an indirect facilitative effect by annuals, which slowed the development of herbaceous perennials down, and thus facilitated growth of woody species, could be seen on topsoil when succession started in spring.

热带亚热带水库浮游植物叶绿素a与磷分布的特征

于丰水期和枯水期对广东省19个大中型水库的浮游植物叶绿素a和磷(P)进行采样和测定,分析了P和叶绿素a的分布特征及其相关性。结果表明P的浓度和叶绿素a含量较低的有流溪河、新丰江、公平和白盆珠水库;而枯、丰两期P的浓度和叶绿素a含量均较高的有契爷石、石岩、鹤地和大镜山水库;其余12个水库均属于季节性差异较明显的水库,在丰水期由入流带来较多的P,而枯水期则因入流相对较少,P的含量也较低。大部分水库在枯水期P限制现象比较严重,而丰水期则有所缓解。P限制程度的不同导致了丰水期和枯水期水库浮游植物种群组成和叶绿素含量的变化。丰水期的优势种类P半饱和浓度较高,在枯水期这些种类不再是优势种的组成部分。而一些P半饱和浓度较低的种类,在丰水期和枯水期都成为各个水库的优势种。通过相关性分析,正磷酸盐(PO₄^3--P)与叶绿素的相关系数较高,总磷(TP)与叶绿素的相关系数则相对较低。从时间上来看,枯水期PO₄^3--P与叶绿素的相关性高于丰水期;从空间上看,大坝处PO₄^3--P与叶绿素的相关性高于入水口。     

华北高产农田生态系统中蚯蚓种群次生演替规律

通过对山东省桓台县不同土壤肥力的农田生态系统中蚯蚓种群的调查发现 ,该地区农田生态系统中有 7种蚯蚓 ,高肥力土壤中蚯蚓相对较丰富 ,种群密度可达 83.83条 / m2 ,梯形流蚓为优势种 ;低肥力土壤中蚯蚓种群密度 4 0 .18条 / m2 ,优势种是天锡杜拉蚓。梯形流蚓和湖北远盲蚓在高肥力土壤中的种群密度要明显高于低肥力土壤 ;而其他几种蚯蚓种群数量变化不大 ,随着土壤肥力的演变 ,低肥力土壤中天锡杜拉蚓的优势地位随着土壤肥力的提高逐渐被梯形流蚓所代替。合理的投入特别是农田有机物投入可以加速农田生态系统中生态演替 ;试验中不同处理间蚯蚓的种群生物量有以下趋势 :化肥投入 <化肥与麦秸还田 <化肥与玉米麦秸全还田 <化肥与玉米麦秸全还田以及有机肥的施用。无论在高肥力还是低肥力的土壤上都表现出相同的规律 ,但蚯蚓种群组成并没有明显差异     

汉江中下游水生植物群落及演替

水生植物是河流生态系统的重要组成部分, 研究河流水生植物群落组成及演替对于河流生态系统健康诊断具有重要意义。该研究采用野外生态学研究方法, 于2013年9月和2014年6月2次对汉江中下游12个典型代表性江段的水生植物群落的组成、分布和生物量等进行调查。调查结果表明, 现阶段汉江中下游的主要水生植物共有69种, 隶属28科49属, 其中优势种主要是穿叶眼子菜(Potamogeton perfoliatus)、竹叶眼子菜(P. malaianus)、芦苇(Phragmites australis)、南荻(Triarrhena lutarioriparia)和喜旱莲子草(Alternanthera philoxeroides)等。结合早期的研究表明, 汉江中游江段沉水植物优势群落变化明显; 下游则呈现出由沉水植物群落向挺水植物群落演替的格局。挖沙和污染等人类干扰以及水位波动、河流底质和植物繁殖策略等自然因素可能是导致汉江中下游水生植物优势种变化和群落演替的主要因素。该研究结果可为汉江中下游的水生植物多样性保护和生态修复提供科学依据。     

几种人工固沙林多种群多尺度格局及种间关联

以乌兰布和沙漠东北缘黄灌区绿洲边缘早期营造的人工固沙花棒林、沙拐枣林和梭梭林为主要研究对象,并以附近天然植被为对照,采用连续小样方组成的样带法调查,分析了已进入衰老期的3种人工固沙林的多种群多尺度格局特点及种间关联.结果表明：对照区的天然植被中, 74.29%以油蒿单种群格局出现,24.99%以白刺单种群格局出现;人工固沙林逐渐演替成为近天然植被.与对照区天然植被相比,人工固沙林格局强度较高,在防风固沙,促进天然固沙植物恢复、演替方面发挥了重要作用.但随着演替进程,人工种植灌木将衰退减少,天然植物种逐渐成为林分的优势种.在环境条件差异较小情况下,植被的格局尺度受斑块内优势植物种特征及其相互关系的影响较大.种间关联与斑块的大小、植物种组成及不同植物种对斑块的贡献率有关.     

Topography and soil content contribute to plant community composition and structure in subtropical evergreen-deciduous broadleaved mixed forests

Topography and soil factors are known to play crucial roles in the species composition of plant communities in subtropical evergreen-deciduous broadleaved mixed forests. In this study, we used a systematic quantitative approach to classify plant community types in the subtropical forests of Hubei Province (central China), and then quantified the relative contribution of drivers responsible for variation in species composition and diversity. We classified the subtropical forests in the study area into 12 community types. Of these, species diversity indices of three communities were significantly higher than those of others. In each community type, species richness, abundance, basal area and importance values of evergreen and deciduous species were different. In most community types, deciduous species richness was higher than that of evergreen species. Linear regression analysis showed that the dominant factors that affect species composition in each community type are elevation, slope, aspect, soil nitrogen content, and soil phosphorus content. Furthermore, structural equation modeling analysis showed that the majority of variance in species composition of plant communities can be explained by elevation, aspect, soil water content, litterfall, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus. Thus, the major factors that affect evergreen and deciduous species distribution across the 12 community types in subtropical evergreen-deciduous broadleaved mixed forests include elevation, slope and aspect, soil total nitrogen content, soil total phosphorus content, soil available nitrogen content and soil available phosphorus content.     

云南松林次生演替阶段土壤细菌群落的变化

土壤细菌多样性是维持森林生态系统功能的关键因子,森林演替是影响其动态变化的重要因素。研究云南松林不同演替阶段土壤细菌群落结构及其多样性的变化规律,有助于深入理解森林生态系统恢复过程的驱动机制。本研究以云南省永仁县皆伐后形成的针叶林、针阔混交林和常绿阔叶林为对象,基于Illumina Hiseq高通量测序技术,分析森林演替过程中土壤细菌群落组成、结构、多样性及其影响因子的变化。结果表明: 土壤细菌的种群分类单元、Ace指数、Chao1指数和Shannon指数均随着演替进行呈减少趋势,演替早期阶段土壤的细菌总数、菌群丰富度及复杂程度最高。不同演替阶段细菌群落结构存在显著差异,其中,针阔混交林的差异最大,变形菌门和酸杆菌门为各演替序列共有的优势类群,放线菌门、绿弯菌门和Patescibacteria是演替早期的优势类群,且随着演替进行呈现减少趋势;变形菌门和WPS-2相对多度随演替进行呈增加趋势。土壤pH和乔木层物种丰富度是驱动次生演替过程中土壤细菌群落组成变化的关键因子。随着演替的进行,土壤细菌多样性减少,群落组成差异加大。     

长白山红松阔叶林不同演替阶段优势种的变化

以皆伐后长白山红松阔叶林4个不同演替阶段的林分为对象,分析其群落和优势树种的变化特征.结果表明:在长白山红松阔叶林不同演替阶段中,乔木树种的丰富度、Shannon多样性和Simpson优势度变化较小,多度和均匀度变化较大.随着演替的进程,群落的优势树种组成发生变化,种数逐渐减少,优势种的胸高断面积加和和最大重要值逐渐增加,说明不同演替阶段群落的优势种地位不断提高.长白山红松阔叶林的演替过程是白桦、山杨、黄檗、春榆等阳性或半阴性树种不断减少,而紫椴、水曲柳、红松、色木槭等阴性树种不断增加的过程.     

长白山森林不同演替阶段植物与土壤氮磷的化学计量特征

以长白山森林不同演替阶段的典型群落为对象,研究了不同层次优势种茎和叶化学计量特征及其与土壤因子的关系,并对不同演替阶段群落化学计量进行了比较.结果表明: 叶氮浓度(LNC)与叶磷浓度(LPC)、茎氮浓度(SNC)呈极显著正相关,与茎磷浓度(SPC)显著正相关;LPC与SNC呈显著正相关,与叶N/P、茎N/P显著负相关;叶N/P与茎N/P呈极显著正相关;SNC与SPC呈极显著正相关;SPC与茎N/P呈极显著负相关.各演替群落间的乔木层化学计量特征均有显著差异,灌木层除了叶N/P差异显著以外,其他指标均无显著差异;随演替的进行, LNC明显增加,而LPC呈减少趋势.通过RDA约束排序分析发现,演替前期植物群落主要受氮素的影响,演替中后期主要受氮磷共同影响,以磷素的作用更为强烈.     

庐山森林景观格局变化的长期动态模拟

在以植被格局为基础的森林景观动态分析中,可通过森林演替推断景观格局的动态变化以及相应的景观生态过程。运用空间直观景观模型LANDIS,以庐山风景区为案例地,模拟森林植被在未来300 a的自然演替动态,在此基础上选取斑块面积比、聚集度、分维数、多样性指数和均匀度指数等景观格局指数,分析森林景观格局随森林演替的动态变化。结果表明：（1）阔叶林树种的绝对优势地位保证其斑块面积比呈现持续增长的稳定趋势,森林植被将朝着地带性常绿阔叶林方向演替;（2）景观聚集度特征方面,阔叶林树种在前150 a缓慢增长,而后150 a保持相对稳定,杉木林一直保持平稳,毛竹林在整个模拟阶段一直在不断下降直至演替结束;（3）各优势树种植被斑块的分维数都保持在1-1.1之间,说明各景观斑块的边缘相对较规则且变化较小;（4）景观多样性指数呈现出先上升后缓慢下降的趋势,而均匀度指数则呈现出先下降后上升再缓慢下降的变化态势。景观格局指数的变化特征与植被向顶极群落演替的趋势相吻合,该模拟结果可运用到庐山森林景观的管理实践中。从长远来看,应该继续实行严格的封山育林政策。
